Quarantine and Miracles

Nouk and I (Daniel) have had a few things to deal with regarding making changes in preparation to pave the way for 2016. Thank you all for your patience, allow me to explain further.

As you may know by now, Nouk has begun a quarantine period. She has had many inner nudges to go within from Jesus, in order to truly embody these deeper teachings. The inner calling is to become a literal “demonstration” of these deeper teachings. There are many teachers of A Course in Miracles, however I don’t know of one who is healing the sick and raising the dead – consistently (as Jesus teaches). To help facilitate this shift she has cancelled all live Retreats and speaking engagements for 2016…not knowing where her income will now come from.

We both have been guided to move from our little apartment in Santa Fe. The nudge was to find a remote property in the high desert, to allow us the necessary solitude and tranquility for this quarantine period, without the daily challenges of noise and distraction.

Well, we found a rental property and it’s perfect! It’s a 12 acre property in Abiquiu, Northern New Mexico, skirting the southerly base of a lovely mountain (National Forest/Park). This gives us easy access to remote hiking trails and peace and tranquility.

We can have chickens, vegetable gardens, desert landscape gardens and access to a well for our water. Also a garage and work area for me to build items we need, along with a magnificent view to distant mountain ranges. The house is perfect in every way; lots of space, large rooms, and a lovely warm, cozy, functional kitchen and the house has 3 fireplaces for those cold, snowy winter months (like today).

A Wonderful Learning Opportunity – A Miracle

We found the rental property through Craig’s List and its perfect how both of us had pinned it as a favorite after we both independently looked through over 400 properties. Isn’t it great how Spirit works?

There was one seeming ego temptation though. The rental price was $350 per month more than we could afford, way out of our league. Yet we just KNEW this property was divinely orchestrated. It’s at this point the ego usually dupes us into entering a lie by tempting us to take one of two fear-based choices:

1) Forget the property because the rent is too high, OR

2) Take it at the full rental price and HOPE (fear-based) that we can struggle and sacrifice enough in order to scrape the rent together every month.

Both options were FEARFUL. But…there was a divine option. And we decided to take that one instead.

So we overlooked the “appearance” of lack and decided to go ahead to view the house. We met with the owners. They explained to us that they were seeking responsible tenants who would be overjoyed to take good care of their property. They shared with us that they hadn’t had a very good experience with the previous tenant.

We joined at the heart level with the landlords and recognized their needs and concerns. This is where we practiced what Jesus teaches in the Course…we relinquished our separate goals and joined to share the one goal with them. We had their best interests at heart and knew that while we did so; all our needs MUST be met. This is Love in action.

We told them that we would love and care for the property as our own. Then Nouk and I excused ourselves and sat alone for 10 minutes in a vacant room of the house, joining with Holy Spirit to open to guidance on discussing the rental price.

Strong guidance was to just state the simple truth…that we fell short of the rent by $350 per month. And…that we didn’t have the required first and last month’s rent as a deposit, which would have been an extra $3300.

Then these lovely people, whom we had just met only an hour before, opened their hearts and AGREED to dropping the rent by one-quarter! And…they waived the $3300 deposit as well! What a miracle!

The landlords live around 5 hours away. They explained that before we could move in, they would need to travel down in order to spend a few days cleaning up the house and land as the previous tenant had left them in a shambles. We felt such huge gratitude for these landlords that we offered to do the necessary cleaning and prep ourselves, therefore sparing them the need to travel down here. They were so thankful that they mailed us the keys to the property two weeks before our scheduled move in.

As we write this, we have moved in and the funniest thing is that we still haven’t seen the rental agreement, let alone signed it! That’s how much TRUST there is between us.

Nouk and I have no idea HOW the rent will be paid each month…yet we TRUST that all, yes ALL our needs are met when we prioritize God’s Will above every temptation to perceive fear and lack.

Thank you to YOU, our beautiful Spirit Family, for joining us on this most wondrous Journey without distance to the Holy Self that never left. Thank you for your courage, for your consistent willingness to “bounce-back” regardless of how many times you’ve succumbed to the ego’s relentless attempts to pull you down its endless rabbit holes.

Let’s rally together as ONE now. Let’s collaborate to DEMONSTRATE that fear cannot prevail, that L.O.V.E. is all there is…because L.O.V.E. is WHO we are…literally. You are God’s most cherished Child, shining in pure innocence. You are the Light of the World. You are under no laws but God’s and your Holiness quite literally REVERSES all the laws of the world. Jesus came 2000 years ago to teach you and me WHO we really are. It’s time now to learn to accept and RECEIVE the Majesty of our Creation and to make it manifest here in the world.

Nouk and Daniel, My name is Harper Wood and I will be moving to the Taos area in April 2016 to spend some time with my mother who lives in Questa. I have followed you, Nouk, loosely since I first heard your podcast interview with Tomas and Philip Urso. If you come out of quarrantine, I would love to meet you both sometime locally. I am a longtime off and on (never off in my heart, only in practice) ACIM student. I am also Amy Torres’s assistant, but I would like to meet for personal reasons, not professional because of Amy, although she would surely support my meeting you and send her greetings and love as well. I will contact you once I’m settled later in the year to see if you’re available. Much love, Harper

Dear Ones, Have you considering allowing guests to stay for short periods to help with the farm, commune, and help support you? I’m feeling this really strongly. Like-hearts communing and supporting each other… Much love, Christine

Christine, thank you. One day I see the possibility of building a Retreat Center for the purpose of providing a Sacred Space for Community to awaken together.
However for now…it’s time for seclusion for me 😉
Much Love,
Nouk

It’s just that we have no idea what would be best for us on this path; the HS uses everything for the journey Home. Even if the happened and you’d had a bad experience with the owners of the house, it can be “grist for the mill”, so to speak. I’m happy you are in a good place, but please be prudent about finances and worldly needs. “It is a particularly unworthy form of denial” to deny that we live in a world that requires us to take care of ourselves. Be careful of level confusion: we may intellectually believe we are not here, but if we see that person in the mirror and still identify with him, then we are still here. 😉 Blessings on your journey.

Nouk – I have just found you today after watching The Course in Miracles: The Movie. Somehow seeing and listening to Tomas and you, I felt drawn to you and have now added The End of Death to my daily reading. I am new to ACIM and so grateful for it’s truly Good News. My husband and I relocated to Taos some years ago, in my experience it is a life changing place to be and I am so happy that you are here too. I understand It’s all an illusion, but what a wonderful one! I just wanted to say hi and tell you that you touch the world and people like me who have never met you. I recognize God’s love in you and am glad that we are one. Blessings to you, Love and Peace. Warmest regards, Chris

Hi Christie, I am really touched by your heartfelt message, thank you. And I’m so glad to know you’re diving deeply into ACIM and The End of Death. And now you also live in Taos…such a sacred place (in the dream). I hope you’re signed up for my Newsletter as I’m hoping to share some new things in the next few months. Here is the sign up just in case: https://takemetotruth.org/newsletter/
I hope to meet you one day…
With Love, Nouk
